I'm in the process of setting up a new bigger tank so thought I'd share what I've done and what I'm planning to do.
About a 6 weeks ago I saw a Juwel Trigon 350 tank for sale quite close to where I live, now I've wanted a bigger tank for a while but have not been able to convince my wife. However this tank had a dark brown cabinet and she's always complained about the light coloured cabinet not matching the rest of the furniture on the trigon 190, so with my finger crossed I said told her I found a new tank going cheap and this one matched the rest of the furniture.
I showed her the picture -
And she liked it, so after a bit on negotiation I got the tank, stand and sump for £75 along with some of the pipework and a few other bits and pieces.
Now the tank had been used as a marine tank and had one hole drilled in the bottom, but didn't come with any of the original light units
I still thought it was a great deal so borrow a people carrier and went down to collect it.
